A spacious island topped with rich Italian marble is perfect for prep and casual dining, and all cooking activities can be performed surrounded by the dazzling natural light that floods the kitchen through sliding glass doors that open to a convenient deck. A spacious garden provides a scenic view and the perfect play space. The addition of a chic powder room on this floor makes entertaining a breeze. Head upstairs to three light-filled bedrooms, including a large primary suite with garden views that includes generous closets and an ensuite marble bathroom with double walnut vanity, glass enclosed shower, skylight, and Carrara marble mosaics and tiles. A secondary guest bathroom on this floor is outfitted with a tub/shower combo and also includes sophisticated marble tiles, designer lighting and great storage. High ceilings abound, ensuring great light all day long. The garden level perfectly completes the picture with a convenient separate entrance (for strollers), a fourth bedroom in front that makes the perfect guest bedroom and/or home office, and a sizable family room in back with super easy garden access. The full bathroom on this level makes hosting guests comfortable and easy, and don't miss the laundry area and additional storage under the stairs. Plan to live in this family room all year long and enjoy the perfect indoor/outdoor life, and a media and playroom that keeps the mess off the parlor floor. Of course, don't miss all the amenities for which Park Slope is so beloved right outside your door including a host of incredible restaurants, bakeries, cafe's, schools, yoga studios, gyms and Prospect Park!
